One woman was killed and seven other people were hurt after a suspect identified as a Sudanese immigrant opened fire at a Tennessee church Sunday, police said, as federal officials told Fox News the FBI will initiate a civil rights investigation into the shooting.

The suspect, 25-year-old Emanuel Kidega Samson, immigrated from Sudan two decades ago, police said. He's suspected of bringing two pistols and a mask to the predominantly white Burnette Chapel Church of Christ in Antioch, southeast of Nashville, before opening fire just after 11 a.m.

No kidding. Why is the FBI involved? Should this be a local law enforcement investigation?

President Trump was right again. Sudan was on his first list of 6 countries where he wants to ban or do extreme vetting on immigrants. He's still taking hell for doing this.

The media will say it’s about guns and there will be no hate crime charges.

And caused Confederate flags to be banned.

Can we now ban Islam?

Amen, bro. Always carry in church. The devil is a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, and he has help. Like this guy.

Samson defended Sharia law. He supported BLM. Supports Mugabe. He came here under the Dream act.

I’ve carried in church for years. I carry everywhere. Yes, even into places that post their “no guns allowed” posters that I ignore. Only my hubby & mother in law knows that I carry into church. We’ve even mapped out scenarios just in case a situation such as this one arises. Hopefully we never have to implement this tool.

He came to the US when he was 5?

Headshake.

Wonder what his parents are like. (Don’t always expect parents to predict child’s choices, but they influence them.

The other question? What non-family members influenced him in childhood?

I have no issue with that. I’m sure that some of our church members do to. Possibly the pastor. We’ve never discussed that. It is not important for me to know.

He’s been right many times.

He has been a good president. In spite of what the press and corrupt congresscritters say.

Yes. It is terror. And a vacuum cleaner needs to be applied to the source of his mindset. Find all those who influenced him.

Yes, God bless Robert Engle and his family. God Bless all those injured and their families. And most of all God Bless and console Melanie Smith Crow and her family.

And God Bless Pastor David “Joey” Spann and his family. May he recover quickly and completely.

I’ve not heard that, but it was vaguely mentioned him shooting himself in the leg, assumed during scuffle with the young usher.

Yep, I hope the appropriate law enforcement agencies are vacuuming his facebook post for accomplices or those who influenced him.
